Outdoor Activities

Located in the Sonoran Desert, Mesa is surrounded by a rich, vibrant and verdant playground for sought-after outdoor recreation.

The outdoor adventure explorer might enjoy hiking mountain tops, kayaking along calm rivers, soaring the skies in a hot air balloon, paddle boarding canyon-carved lakes, cycling the scenic byways or taking the family to see the Sonoran by horseback. The kids love visiting our waterparks and pools including the ever popular, Flowrider. Nearly every outdoor pursuit can be experienced here in the Sonoran Desert including heading out on tour along the historic and scenic Apache Trail.
